Prostitution in the United States, Vol. 1

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Prostitution in the United States, Vol. 1: Volume I Prior to the Entrance of the United States Into the World War The plans for the study of prostitution in the United States were made before our country entered the world war, and before many important agencies which were later developed by the government had begun to function. The greater part of the field work was done in the first half of the year 1917. The task of putting this and other material connected with the study into shape was interrupted by the author´s war service. When it was possible to resume the preparations for publication and the matter on hand was reviewed in the light of war efforts, public and private, for the control of commercialized vice, it became evident that we had passed through a transition period. The termination of the war marked the end of the old order of things in the United States and the beginning of a new era characterized by more extensive and concentrated efforts on the part of the government. It was, therefore, decided to divide the study into two parts. In this first volume we will present an account of the conditions of commercialized prostitution, and of the more important agencies developed to meet the situations as they existed prior to and at the time of our entrance into the world war.
